Post subject:  Renko Based Automatic Loss Recovery

Now, i have been reading the ALR threads and see that there are discussion on what method of entry one should use.

I tend to favor the trading strategies without indicators, let the price do the work. Maybe a Renko candle entry would be suitable for ALR. Fixed size of bars, known entry and exit prices. Could be standard or Parallel bars.

My thinking:
"Scalper"
enter at start of candle.
Take profit = Renko candle size x 4
Start recovery = enter price - candle size.

"Kind of fast trader"
enter at start of candle.
Take profit = Renko candle size x 8
Start recovery = enter price -2 x candle size.

Inputs:
Candle size (could be auto detect)
TakeProfitNumberOfBars
StartRecoveryAtMinusBars
"recovery options"

Maybe use filters for determining trades to take, trading time, pivots, daily open, MA's.....indicators to guide our initial trade.
